This second edition is a comprehensive treatment of RF and microwave design for advanced undergraduate and graduate students (as well as professionals). A key feature of this new edition is the introduction of real-world case studies developed with AWR’s popular Microwave Office circuit design software. These include:
- High Dynamic Range Down-Converter Design,
- Third-Order Chebyshev Combline Filter Design,
- Design of a Bandstop Filter,
- Narrowband Linear Amplifier Design,
- Wideband Amplifier Design,
- Analysis of a Distributed Amplifier,
- Distributed Biasing of a Pseudo-Differential Amplifier,
- Reflection Oscillator,
- Design of a C-Band VCO,
- Oscillator Phase Noise Analysis,
- Design of a WiMAX Power Amplifier.
